“If you’re on the UCSD campus and craving real Chinese food, this place is honestly a gem. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is warm and lively, and the employees make you feel welcome. What really stood out to me is that the owner himself walks around, talks to customers, checks in, and makes sure everyone is having a good time. It feels very welcoming. And I have to say this, the Oreo boba here is my personal favourite!”

“5/5! We’ve ordered takeout from here many, many times, but today was our first time dining in! I wish I had taken photos, but we were all way too hungry to wait! We always order the wonton soup, but the honey sweet & spicy chicken is fantastic, and their chop suey is delicious as well. They even serve complimentary jasmine tea, which was such a nice touch. Our server was so kind and lively! It’s a bit of a drive from where we live, but it makes us so happy to know that the place making our favorite Chinese food is run by such wonderful people. We'll definitely keep coming back!”

“Even after seven years, this place is still amazing! Seems like they gained popularity over the years as well! I had to order some of my favorite dishes. Beef Pao-Mo soup was in lamb soup, it also had cubes of chewy noodles and vermicelli. The A-Choi veggie was generously portioned. I asked for less salt and it was perfect! Beef skewers were big beef cubes in cumin seasoning. Waited about 20 minutes on a Saturday around 5pm to be seated.”

“If you are looking for one of the absolute best spots in San Diego for a late-night bite, this is it. The atmosphere is totally unique, featuring immersive screens all around that give the space a cool, futuristic vibe. The menu offers a fantastic variety of skewers—all deep-fried to absolute perfection. A few standouts that are a must-order: Bacon Enoki Mushrooms: Savory, juicy, and phenomenal. Chicken Skin: Crispy, golden, and downright addictive. The ordering system is entirely phone-based, which makes the process seamless and completely eliminates any communication errors with servers. Pair any of it with a cold beer, and you’ve got the ultimate midnight snack setup. Highly recommended! 🍻🍻”

“Authentic food, generous portions and good prices - what else can one ask for. The service is very fast and the staff is polite and eager to help. The one downside is parking is limited, and you may need to circle around a bit until you get a spot. This was our third time here and definitely not last. Recommended!”

“I took my two boys and mom to eat here. My children and I don't get to go out to eat often because of celiac disease and my one son has severe allergy to wheat/gluten and has an epi-pen. I heard p.f changs is very careful with cross contamination so I decided we would give it a shot. The manager Scott was wonderful! He personally came over to explain everything and was very attentive. I felt very comfortable. Then we met our waitress Kiara who was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond. Her energy and attention to detail was outstanding. She was personable and made sure we had fresh plates that she wiped down herself, she was professional, and made the experience so much better. Everything tasted great. We will definitely be returning! Even the host came over and sat next to my boys and asked them what their favorite animal was and went to get them special stickers, which made them so excited. But Scott and Kiara really made the whole experience great!!”

“Ok, my daughter wanted Chinese and we stumbled across the Corner Cafe. What a happy surprise. Not fancy and they do a brisk take out business... But worth dining in. Portions were huge and delicious. Everything is home cooked and amazing. They do wings and were able to do mine gluten free. They were maybe some of the best wings I have ever eaten. Worth it just for that. The pork with Chinese broccoli was also a hig as well as the from scratch hot and sour soup. One of my favorites and out did Din Tai Fung HANDS DOWN. Highly recommend! The owners were awesome too and took the time to make sure our order was perfect”

“We don’t live locally, but we come to San Diego every once in a while. Because we really like the restaurant next door, Spicy City, so we usually head straight there. But one time, someone in our group said they wanted Cantonese food, so we decided to give Easter Dynasty a try. To our surprise, we completely fell in love with the flavors. The dishes are very distinctive, each one has its own character, and the prices are very reasonable. After that meal, we decided this would also become one of those places we come back to every once in a while.”

Every employee here is aware of gluten free questions. Call and ask! Mandarin Wok is a low key gluten free haven. The owners are aware of where gluten can be like soy sauce. Ask them about the gluten free specials. Fried chicken - gluten free!!”

“What a bargain for lunch! I was in the mood for lo mein and came upon this restaurant in my search in the area. I didn't know how much their lunch special were until I sat down and looked at their menu. Wow! You cannot beat $11 for lunch these days and the food was served on a huge platter! I almost laughed when the waitress brought it out to the table. This is a small restaurant with a few small patio tables in front. It was a weekday and it wasn't busy. The cashier/waitress was really friendly and nice. She had a ready smile for everyone who came in. I wanted shrimp lo mein for lunch but only chicken or pork lo mein were on the lunch menu. I paid $2 more for shrimp and there were a lot in my dish. It was really good. The side salad was plain and just mainly iceberg lettuce but the egg roll was good.”

“PRETTY SENSATIONAL ! We had just done a bunch of shopping at Vinh-Hung Supermarket on Saturday and decided that we should have lunch at the Hong Kong BBQ Dim Sum & Kitchen...situated inside the supermarket. You know it didn't look too flash but it was packed out and the food going out to the tables looked pretty good. I asked a female server if we could get a table for 2...and she pointed to the only vacant table in the cafe. WHOO HOO ! I sat at the table watching the activity while my wife took an urgent phone call about her ill mother. A server named Joe came by and I asked for iced waters. THEY CAME OUT FAST ! Joe brought us menus which we checked out in detail. WOW.... there was some neat stuff on their menu. We kicked things off with a SHRIMP DUMPLING Appetizer ( $6.38 ) ! For our mains my wife selected HONEY WALNUT SHRIMP ( $21.95 ) while I chose KUNG PAU SPICY BEEF ( $17.95 ). You know when you try a brand new eatery you never know what to expect but I had been seeing some pretty good looking dishes ferried out to the tables while I waited for my wife. Our Shrimp Dumpling Appetizer arrived in next to no time and tasted SENSATIONAL ! WHAT A GREAT START ! Our mains came out together and the serves were GINORMOUS ! And darn did they look good. My wife went nuts over her Honey Walnut Shrimp....an authentic Chinese dish. I tried it and OMG it tasted beyond delicious ! My Kung Pau Spicy Beef & Rice BLEW ME AWAY ! FLAVOR KICK FLAVOR KICK..get the message. My delicious serve was huge and I actually had the rest for lunch today....still tasted awesome. THIS PLACE DELIVERED WAY BEYOND OUR EXPECTATIONS !”

“One of the best meals Ive had in SD! The fish came out perfectly crispy and tender on the inside. The veggies on the side was generous. Skewers were delicious as well especially the chicken cartilage (MUST!!). There are also unlimited side dishes/fruits free self serve. And ice cream like black sesame flavored. The service was very friendly! I called ahead and they offered to help me put my name on the waitlist which was nice.”

The menu offers a comprehensive selection of Chinese cuisine, making it a neighborhood staple for many frequent patrons. Regarding a recent incident where a customer claimed to have found celery in their dish, I know for a fact that the restaurant does not serve celery; perhaps the patron mistook bok choy for celery.”

“For noodle purists and seekers of authentic regional comfort, finding a bowl that truly transports you can be a lifelong pursuit. Having traversed the bustling noodle alleys of Shanghai and sampled celebrated destinations like Magic Noodle in Las Vegas, my standards for handmade noodles are exacting. Yet, nestled right here in the heart of San Diego, Noodle and Bun has effortlessly claimed a spot among the very best in the country. The Star of the Menu: Spicy Beef Brisket Noodle The crown jewel of the meal was undoubtedly the Spicy Beef Brisket Noodle paired with house-made knife-cut noodles. The texture of the noodles is a testament to true artisanal craftsmanship—chewy, robust, and possessing that ideal rustic variance that only skilled hand-cutting can achieve. What truly elevates the dish, however, is the masterclass in spice balance. Too often, stateside Sichuan-inspired noodle houses lean too heavily on Sichuan peppercorns, rendering your palate completely numb after just a few bites. Here, the kitchen demonstrates remarkable restraint and precision: the peppercorn profile is aromatic and vibrant, enhancing the rich, tender beef brisket without overwhelming the senses. It is a masterclass in flavor equilibrium. A Minor Misstep: The Xiao Bao No dining experience is entirely without flaw. The Xiao Bao arrived slightly overcooked—likely a casualty of a bustling, high-volume evening service. However, even with the structural compromise from a bit too much time in the heat, the quality of the ingredients could not be masked. The filling tasted undeniably fresh, and each bite remained impressively juicy, hinting at a very capable kitchen even when running under pressure. Service and Practicalities * Service: Attentive, welcoming, and efficient. The front-of-house team manages the rush with grace, keeping the energy upbeat. * Parking: As expected for the vibrant Fourth Avenue corridor in downtown San Diego, parking is a formidable challenge. Be prepared to circle for street parking or utilize nearby paid garages. The Verdict Noodle and Bun delivers where it matters most: extraordinary, authentic noodle-making that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with international heavyweights. Minor kitchen hiccups aside, this is an essential destination for anyone who appreciates the soul of hand-crafted pasta.”

Nick, our waiter, was a lifesaver, patiently sorting out a gift card hiccup with a smile. The vibe was warm, though the lunch rush made tables turn quickly. Parking validated—score!—but the lot filled fast. A shoutout to the manager for accommodating a family with special needs; the quiet corner table and stellar service made our evening unforgettable. Only wish there were more outdoor seating for the sunny days.”

“Straight 5🌟 across the board. Today was my first visit to this lovely little restaurant, I'm a trucker by trade so I have been to plenty of restaurants, this is by far one of the best ones I have been to. The atmosphere, both decor and ambient music, is awesome, both are really peaceful and beautiful. The food was fantastic, come hungry or plan on taking home leftovers because you get a TON of food for your money. I had the Lo Mein with the House Special for lunch, I finished it, and I will not be needing to eat dinner there was so much on the plate. The staff is super friendly and they were always there to refill my water with a smile. 10/10 I WILL be dining here again when I am in the area.”

Parking can be limited but we went on New Year's day so other businesses were closed and there was plenty of parking that day, I can see it be an issue other business days.

A modest Chinese restaurant in Toronto is getting major buzz thanks to an unlikely namedrop from rapper Kendrick Lamar. New Ho King, a late-night eatery, was mentioned in Lamar's recent diss track "Euphoria" aimed at fellow rapper Drake. The lyric that sparked it all? Lamar rapped "I be at New Ho King eatin' fried rice with a dip sauce and a blammy, crodie." Some major news sources noticed the burst of new reviews mentioning the song soon after - so did we at Restaurantji.
